Blue Mountains Cultural Centre

Listen to the artists’ insights about the exhibition, witness a demonstration of their collaborative process to see art and science entwine.

Join us for a 'Show and Tell' with artists Linda Seiffert and Dr Gregory Crocetti. Listen to the artists tell of the creation of the Neo-Hydra—a sculptural reimagining of the mythical swamp-dwelling monster, Hydra. The monster's eleven glass heads double as Winogradsky columns: self-sustaining microbial ecosystems that reveal vibrant, colourful layers of bacteria involved in cycling nutrients in mud and sediments across the Earth. Watch the artists demonstrate how they inoculate these glass vessels with mud and nutrients and discuss how this microbial life continues to grow and transform the artwork over time.Extra info: There will be a talk in the gallery followed by a demonstration in the workshop room.Cost: $5.50 / $3.20 / FREE InSight MembersPlease note, InSight members need to add a promo code when booking in order to access the member discount.
